Hi Martin,
Your approach sounds good to me. I was forgetting about the "editorial"
level of change (e.g. the 3rd part of SemVer). So I agree that moving a leaf
would be an editorial change in both submodules.
But what if a module is not doing include by revision? It may indeed make
sense to include by revision but it isn't mandated. For sake of argument here
what if the module itself didn't change at all in this case?
It is now mandated in section 3 of draft-ietf-netmod-yang-module-versioning-00.
It *feels* like the right thing to do here is to consider the module
overall to have an editorial change.
The revision statement of sub-modules has a scope of the file (the
sub-module). It isn't clear to me whether the revision of a *module* has a
scope that includes all sub-modules or if it is just a scope of the module
file. But we could clarify that as part of this work.
Because of include by revision, the module would have to change to include a
different revision of a sub-module.
Regards,
Reshad.
